Fair point, but it's also true that you're describing a very different situation: AJKD's price went up when Elsevier acquired it, but what Chuck described is a sudden increase in a longstanding APS product. I'm not defending Elsevier here, just pointing out the difference between the two scenarios. Rick Anderson Interim Dean, J. Willard Marriott Library University of Utah [log in to unmask]
